    Hello,

    To better clarify your problem, what is currently the functioning of your keys? Is it not the following for example:

    123 (instead of 789)
    456 (no change)
    789 (instead of 123)
    0 (no change)

      Hello, thank you for your response. That's exactly it:

      123 (instead of 789)
      456 (no change)
      789 (instead of 123)
      0 (no change)

      How can I put the numbers back in their places?

    They are undoubtedly right. I only reread the title before responding. This may be due to an unfortunate choice or change of keyboard that reverses the positioning of the keys on the numeric keypad.

    Test different AZERTY keyboard layouts in the settings section.

      Hello,

      It's strange, the problem is mostly documented under Linux, it's Greek to me, not under Windows.

      If the keyboard were different (Qwerty, Bépo, non-French Azerty...) other keys would be affected.

      The situation resembles a phone keyboard which is the normal layout, so maybe there's some application on the PC that connects to a phone or emulates Android, including a potential remapping of the keyboard in some games?

    Hello,

    As mentioned by brucine, the installation of an application/game must have modified the assignment of your keys. It’s up to you to correlate this with the latest applications or games you installed.

    Then, it all depends on whether the key assignment is modified permanently (i.e. in the Windows registry) or at runtime via a program that launches at Windows startup (see task manager).

    If the modification is permanent, a utility like "SharpKey" available in the Microsoft Store will allow you to make the correction in the registry.
